Our team is affiliated with both a broker-dealer and a registered investment advisor (RIA). Under this structure, we are registered representatives of LPL Financial (broker-dealer) and investment advisor representatives of Private Advisor Group (RIA).

What this means:

Broker-Dealer: A broker-dealer provides the infrastructure that facilitates investment trading (stocks, bonds, mutual funds, etc.) Broker-dealers are regulated by the Federal Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA).

Registered Investment Advisor: An RIA, in contrast, advises and manages client portfolios and is held to a fiduciary standard, which means they are required to act in their client's best interest. RIAs are registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC.) Being a hybrid advisor allows us to offer clients a wider range of investment products and services. Being associated with a broker-dealer and an RIA means we have opted to be held to the highest compliance standards in the industry and are required to always do what's in the best interest of our clients. 

At Franklin Wealth Solutions we can deal with multiple custodians including Charles Schwab and Fidelity.
